Why is my phone dropping signal?

[AC Question]

phone will drop signal a few seconds after restarting, and will not come back so far. It is not just in certain areas, but everywhere I go. Any ideas as to why??

Typically this could be your providers problem.. Most providers say that have the best 3G/4G network.. but if your in a location like me, (1940's home) the walls have had lead paint removed but still our signal is blocked to some degree. Also depends if you're in a vehicle or building that has tinted windows as the tinting can and will block signals.
One thing everyone can do is research if you provider is having connection issues view sites that offer this data to the public.

Here's a for instance: Verizon outage or service down? Current problems and outages | Down Detector

Check this site to see if your provider is on this list as having connection or repair issues during those times when your disconnected.
